1Opinion of the Court
Bell, Presiding Judge.
These cases were originally carried to the Supreme Court of Georgia, which transferred them to this court, holding that plaintiffs’ prayers seeking equitable relief were surplusage as it did not appear from the petitions that the legal relief sought was not full and complete. Gulf American Fire &c. Co. v. McNeal, 222 Ga. 454 (150 SE2d 685).
Plaintiffs’ petitions stated causes of action for declaratory judgment. Thus the trial court did not err in overruling defendant’s demurrers 1 through 5 in both cases. (See Division 6 of this opinion.)
